A double row works well behind the Denali grill. Here's my 30" curved Totron:                 The LED's are 1" appart and the rows of holes in the grill just happen to be 1" ap

The correct term is "illegal commodities broker" thank you!   I actually work for an oil company, which is similar because both businesses provide highly desired products at artificially inflated

Hey guys, I haven't posted on this forum yet but I have read and got a lot of great ideas.

Forgive me if this has already been posted but i put in a rough country 30" curved light bar behind my grill. The light bar itself is more pricey than a Chinese light bar but seems of good quality. The real reason I bought it was for the mounting bracket. It's awesome, a few bolts and that's it. No cutting, drilling, or measuring. And there wiring harness is of excellent quality also. Wrapped in braided nylon of some kind. Plug and play with the Totron wireless remote. And that remote does work with the home link. You can order the bracket without the light bar if you wanted to find a cheaper one (I'm assuming other light bar brands would work but I would check your actual sizes). And on there website it only has the Sierra bracket (they say the Chevy bracket was different?) in a package with a single row light bar. I just called and ordered the double row 30" curved with the gmc bracket. Great customer service just call with any questions and they have really fast shipping. Looks great on my 2015 Sierra all terrain, and my buddy did it the same way on his 16 sierra Slt.

I was talking about this another thread. They only show sierras on their website that have the all terrain grill. What about the SLT and SLE grills? Would the double row light bar fit right in the bottom opening of those grills? I really want to order thier double row kit with the sierra brackets but want to make sure it centers the light bar in bottom opening of the SLE grill.

My buddy and I did this at the same time and he has an SLT 2016 it fit in the bottom opening of the grill. where on my all terrain its in the middle. If you check out the pics of there brackets on the instructions there are multiple positions you could put it. We didn't try any other ones cause he wanted the bottom slot in the grill.

That doesn't look too bad for a mounting bracket. I would consider them as an option.

I just finished installing the Rough Country light bar kit with a switch. How do you guys route the hardwired switc from the engine bay to the cabin? I can't seem to find a way through the firewall. I ended up routing the wire from the side door hinge and underneath the weatherstripping. I put some electrical tape on the metal frame so the wire won't get chaffed. But there's gotta be a better way.

There is a small circle on top of the large grommet in the driver side of the firewall. Cut a slit in it and fish your wire through. This is the method recommended for routing the power wires for the GM kicker system. Tip: remove the 3 nuts holding the power distribution box on the interior and move it slightly out of the way to make it easier to fish the wires through the firewall. I have installed my kicker power wires and rough country harness through here with no trouble.

      Software Update

      By kickass audio · Posted

      when it's greyed out that is it's way of telling you that it's downloading the patch in the background. Eventually it will be fully downloaded and then it will prompt you at ignition shut down to run the update. I highly recommend doing the update once you get home and can run it a few times. I've had several issues with updates not going the first time around and I had to retry the update multiple times in my driveway before it was successful.   Some updates are huge and take awhile to download. You can help it by connecting to your home WiFi and keep the truck on service mode for the ignition and keep it alive for awhile on a battery charger too. There are specs it needs to be in for updating such as a full enough battery charge, no running ignition, etc.

      Software Update

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am not techy at all but wondered if you have the truck running but sitting still in park as some functions gray out as soon as the truck is moving. I believe in the settings for updates you can choose for it NOT to update and I wonder by chance if maybe that was chosen before and now it won't allow you to chose to press update, I think that is back in the settings menu where it has all the items one wants on or off etc. Also I assume you have a wifi connection and checked that it has some signal strength, not that it would have anything to do with the grayed out updates choice in that case. What I am thinking out loud of here may be be of no value but thought I would suggest it, sometimes it can be the simplest thing that resolves an issue.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      The so called rare failure that some certainly liked to tout ( die hard Ford fan boys ) as per the lifter failing and wiping out the cam. Back when it started happening the blame was being pointed to the lifters and honestly I never did hear anything myself conclusively one way or the other on that. Ford themselves in I believe 2024 had a technical bulletin I will call it that came out and for some engine platforms they were reprograming the engines idle speed but also they had a software update for the oil pump which then some time later was said what that software update did as to be increasing the oil pressure at idle. It is a good question if that issue was completely solved as one Ford specialist mechanic youtuber said he saw failures after that time period. Like anything there would be the variables, what oil is being used and the OCI and how much idle time gets put on an engine. I've seen some comments to claim that the L8T isn't so happy with high idle time either but I also know that companies that require their vehicle to idle a lot on the job don't tend to get the oil changed often enough for all those hours of idle time and go off of the odometer.

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By bwiese · Posted

      My 2026 Silv. 1500 WT (reg cab/short bed/4wd) has the 40/20/40 with storage in lower middle seat as well as the fold-down center bolster/armrest.   With the dual glove boxes this is about as much storage as possible in a std cab IMHO. Bill

      2026 Silv. 1500 WT reg cab: how many speakers do I have? Is amp module separate?

      By bwiese · Posted

      I have a 2026 base 1500 "WT" regular cab with basic Chevy "Infotainment 3" 7-inch screen/radio. How many speakers do I have If I want to upgrade? Is the audio amp separate from the radio/display unit]? [I listen to classical and it gets a bit raspy at slightly higher volumes. Don't need a sub etc.] Do I have two or 1 speakers in the doors? etc. Thanks Bill  San Jose
